House Republicans are exploring ways to prevent Zohran Mamdani from ever being sworn in as mayor even if he prevails in Tuesdayās election by using the Constitutionās āinsurrection clause,ā The Post has learned.
The New York Young Republican Club is pushing to prevent the NYC mayoral frontrunner from taking the oath of office Jan. 1 under an idea floated this summer.
It cites language in the post-Civil War 14th Amendment to the Constitution barring from office anyone who āengaged in insurrection or rebellionā or who has āgiven aid or comfort to the enemies.ā The group argues that Mamdaniās own statements calling to resist ICE could violate the prohibition.
Itās the same provision Colorado used to try to kick Trump off the ballot last year, only to get slapped down by the Supreme Court. The high court ruled that it was up to Congress to enforcement the amendment, giving majority Republicans a chance to test their authority.
What the hell? Democrats and Republicans are neoliberals. They both participate in neoliberalism as it has been since, like, the 1970s/1980s. When everything started being dismantled.
So, NAFTA, deregulating all sorts of industries, a lack of regulation on the tech industry, dismantling or not supporting unions, etc.
This tariff stuff does not change anything, imo.
Are you guys all neoliberalism supporters or something?
Neoliberalism is maintained with the two party system we have. And the two sides participate in the ratchet effect.
This is why both sides are going crazy over Zohran.
It feels like you are just using labels a bit wrong. Iām not arguing against your point, just your choice of labels. All these downvotes without proper explanation to help me understand is really lame.
No ā¦
You just have personal definitions that are different than everyone else, and youāre getting upset everyone trusts the dictionary more than you
I was taught by various sources that the reason there is some truth to the idea that democrats and republicans are the same is that they are both participating in perpetuating and spreading neoliberalism. Thatās the point of view I have. Do you disagree with that?
Iām not trying to redefine anything, Iām expressing a point of view. From what I can tell, republican/democrat and neoliberal are not mutually exclusive terms.
